hidden characters

SuperSabin2005 · 07-31-2005, 07:08 PM

There should be hidden characters in final fantasy iv just like in final fantasy vi and they can have valuable moves like sword element attacks and mix summons. Any opinions?

**Dawezy** · 07-31-2005, 08:32 PM

To be honest with you, no.

The game as is, didnt really have any real moments for extra characters to fit in. The way the storyline and such, as you know there was alot of character rotation but that was good enough for me. But as always a bit of a change here and there is welcome, I would've like to have seen Cecil and his Dark Knight career expanded a bit more and have more armour/weapons before he took the dive into the Paladin Saga.

I guess you're right about that, but what I meant about the hidden characters they could add a cave to the game where you can find them. And if there even was hidden characters, what names do you think they should have?

It wouldve been better if they made Golbez named as Garland!

Original Dark Knight in FF1 and since the American Version is FF 2 it would fit!

Secondly, they shouldve had it where they had it where he came to the planet like Superman did!

Now we have a background for the Dark Knight/Paladin!

hmm..now Golbez being namd Garland ..that would be prety awsom!!!!

I think there shouldve been an option abot the whole Cecil Paladin and Dark Knight thing, maybe lik some short dongeon wher u could be the Dark Knight....i dunno just throwing ideas around

Definitely not. It's just fine like it is.

The only thing I would consider accepting is a couple more summons -- not the sucky random ones like Imp or Cocatrice, I mean real summons. There were some optional ones (Odin, Bahamut, Leviathan, Asura, Sylph), but a couple more wouldn't have hurt.

And the way they did the character-switching for GBA, it would have been nice to be able to get Golbez in there too. But oh well.

I don't know why in the hell everybody's caught up on Dark Knight Cecil, either.

According to another thread the re-release was said to have an option to switch characters, that will work well imo, I would like to see more sidequests myself.

Bralius · 04-21-2006, 05:16 PM

I agree with Sasquatch on this one. Everything was fine; could have added hidden summons rather than characters. And that would rock if Golbez were playable at some point. I would definitely be curious as to what his battle menu would look like.

I'd have liked to see the battle options for Kain to be expanded on a bit. Perhaps more similar to a few of the things they added for Freya in FFIX. Though he was my favorite out of the bunch, so maybe I'm a little biased there.

I wouldn't want Cecil to be the Dark Knight. He fits better as a paladin, and it makes the story more interesting that way IMO. Sure, he doesn't look as cool after his switch to paladin... no big deal though.

With the story having to be tweaked and the possibility of making it worse than it is currently, adding a few secret characters left and right won't really make the game more awesome. I was playing resi evil 3 yesterday, so i came up with an idea. What if we were given choices in certain moments of the story. Kind of like an interactive sense of gaming.

theres a hidden sword for cecil its exalibur

Rasler · 06-03-2006, 12:45 AM

I agree with Dawezy, the Dark Knight saga was too short. I spent like 30 hours levelling him up, getting an appreciation for the character, then he goes and changes back to level 1. Not just level 1, but almost as a completely different character! I felt so betrayed...

Iudicium · 06-03-2006, 05:46 AM

It wouldn't work having secret caracters, because there was not many characters to begin with. FF VI had loads of characters though so it works in that situation.

Myo · 06-03-2006, 07:26 AM

Dunno i think they should have let you play as golbez if you beat the game or keep fusoya. Would hav been nice

Brachioraidos · 06-03-2006, 01:47 PM

I think that they should have made golbez a playable chacter after u beat the game. Like u would beat Zemus then u could go through the teleporter and go 2 the lunain planet. The lunar ruins could have been placed there 2
